I've been traveling around South America and Europe since September 2015. I enjoy seeing beautiful scenery, learning things I didn't know I needed to know, trying new food, joking with friends, having interesting conversations, attempting to speak new languages, and exploring! Back at home, my hobbies included swimming, piano, math, Spanish, baking, and skiing. After being away for awhile, though, my main hobby is travel. :) I don't know what I want to do as far as a career, mostly because there are so many things I enjoy!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like getting to know a place through its people. Locals always have the best insight into a place, and that's what I love most: getting the inside scoop! I also enjoy listening to whatever people have to share about themselves.

Interests

Music, chocolate, languages, food, listening, hiking, the outdoors, cultural quirks, anything funny, people-watching, sitting in cafes, and of course, travel!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm up for pretty much anything, especially music-wise! I like any kind of music if I'm in the right mood for it. Genres that often come to mind are acoustic, folk, salsa, jazz, and anything happy with a good beat. I love listening to new types of music. I have a long list of books and movies that I'd like to read/watch, but I'm always looking to make that list longer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Eaten guinea pig, gotten stuck on a volcano, taken a boat through relatively-unseen Patagonia. I think the most amazing thing of all is not letting excuses get in the way of leaving home and seeing the world. I've met lots of people who have done amazing things, and I've got so much life to live and experiences yet to have!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning bits and pieces of new languages! Also, I love listening to people talk about their passions. Whatever your expertise, I want to learn about it. I can teach you whatever limited knowledge I have.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm happy to share stories from my travels. I'll share a goofy sense of humor, a listening ear, and maybe even a cake if I can bake one... :)
